Against Foreij^n Intervention
"Pltase tell the Jcvvish organi/atioiis ill this country/' Prof Serban s iid, "thit if tilt Roumanian-Jew ish relationa are to iinpro\c It cm only he iccoitiphshcd by ntgotiations between the Roumani.in Jow«i thcmsehes and the government Any atttinpt by forcii^ii Jews to exert pressure or intervene in aii3 way can only produce friction and make thc solution of the problem more difficult The Roumanian government shows her Rpod will to thi. Jcv\s and has everj desire to live at peace with them '*
Tht source of the Jewish problem in Roumania, Prof Serban contended, was to be found not m Old Roumania but in the new provinces acquired since the war, Bessarabia and Transylvania "Thc Jews in Old Roumania^" he said "are not hivmgr any difficulties They are loyal, patriotic Roumanians, tjiey are assimilated so that the only differ¬ ence between them and us is their re- hgion, and they are living on equal terms with all the other citizens But m the new provinces thc situation is diflreretit Thc Jews here are strangers who were formerly under foreign rule They speak a different language, they do not understand Roumania Whereas'all thc Jews in Old Roumania are our friends, it IS not so m the new provinces "
Will Abide By Treaty
Regarding thc language question, Pro¬ fessor Serban stnted that the Roumanian government was ready to abide by the provibions of the Lausanne Treaty but the Jcwb have been unable to arrive at an agreement among themselves as to the language to be used m their schools. "Some ask for Hebrew, some for Yid dish," he said "The Jews in Old Rou^ milnia are opposed to anything but the Roumanian language, while there are those, Ml Transylvania, who insist on Hungarian In view of the absence of unanimity among thc Jews, the Rou¬ manian government naturally wants the Jews to use the Roumanian language It If. my own opinion," Prof Serban explained, "that the Jews should in¬ stitute Roumanian only in their schools This would help greatly toward their assimilation in thought and ideas with the Roumanian peop'c and it would do a^\ay with the barriers which now exist {Continued on page 4)

Another Letter From David A. Brown, National Director of the United Jewish Campaign
September 3, 192G Dear Mr Neustadt.
On the approach of the high .holidays I feel within me a special-sense of grati¬ tude for the blessed privilege of having been associated with you and thousands of other fine men aiid women throtighout the land, in one of the greatest human¬ itarian enterprises in the history of Jewish life.
To thank God, for his goodness to us is usual at this time of the; year. But a special prayer of thankfulness can. be added because God in his wid6m has seen to it that during a time of great trial for our people in other parts of the world there was in America a Jewry so cir¬ cumstanced that they were able to avert the greatest catastrophe that ever con¬ fronted our people.
In wishing you a happy and prosper¬ ous New Year, for you and your loved ones, I do so not only in my hidividual capacity but in the names of those count¬ less thousands with whom I am in con¬ stant touch and whose blessings, I know, are. /eing poured out to the Jews of AinE^ica for having stood by during their day foi trial.

NEW YORK CITY —The Ameri¬ can Pro-Falasha Committee has issued an appeal to Jewisli Organizations, con¬ gregations, rabbis and individuals to raise an emergency fund of $10,000, dur¬ ing the month of September, to save its normal school at Addis-Abeba, Abbys- sinia, and to insure the continuance of thc work of Doctor Jacques Faitlovitch, Its director, among the 50,000 Falasha Jews m Abhj sinia This appeal is signed by its officers, Dr Cyrus Adler of Philadelphia, honorary chairman, Dr Ehas M irgolis of Mt Vernon, chair¬ man, Dr Joseph Ranch of Louisville, vice-chairman, Dr Ehas L Solomon of New York City, treasurer, and Rabbj J Ma\ Weis, New York City, secre¬ tary The officers explained that the larger appeals conducted in America during the past two years have resulted in ¦smaller contributions to the fund of the American Pro-Falasha Committee
This condition has created a deficit of ^10,000, which must be eliminated be^ fore the close of September m order to insure that the doors of the normal school at Addis-Abeba for thc training of leaders and teachers among the Falashas, shall continue to remain open The work of this organization has been furthered on a modest budget of $10,000, which does not make provision for its larger program, which has been tem poraPilj suspended durmg the appeals for European relief
